Using llama.cpp release b3583 for quantization.

Original model: https://huggingface.co/ClosedCharacter/Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay

All quants made using imatrix option with dataset from here

Run them in LM Studio

Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay-IQ3_XS.gguf IQ3_XS 3.72GB false Lower quality, new method with decent performance, slightly better than Q3_K_S.
Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay-Q2_K_L.gguf Q2_K_L 3.61GB false Uses Q8_0 for embed and output weights. Very low quality but surprisingly usable.
Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay-Q2_K.gguf Q2_K 3.35GB false Very low quality but surprisingly usable.
Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay-IQ2_M.gguf IQ2_M 3.10GB false Relatively low quality, uses SOTA techniques to be surprisingly usable.

Embed/output weights

Some of these quants (Q3_K_XL, Q4_K_L etc) are the standard quantization method with the embeddings and output weights quantized to Q8_0 instead of what they would normally default to.

Some say that this improves the quality, others don't notice any difference. If you use these models PLEASE COMMENT with your findings. I would like feedback that these are actually used and useful so I don't keep uploading quants no one is using.

Thanks!

Downloading using huggingface-cli

First, make sure you have hugginface-cli installed:

pip install -U "huggingface_hub[cli]"

Then, you can target the specific file you want:

huggingface-cli download bartowski/Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay-GGUF --include "Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay-Q4_K_M.gguf" --local-dir ./

If the model is bigger than 50GB, it will have been split into multiple files. In order to download them all to a local folder, run:

huggingface-cli download bartowski/Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay-GGUF --include "Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay-Q8_0/*" --local-dir ./

You can either specify a new local-dir (Peach-9B-8k-Roleplay-Q8_0) or download them all in place (./)

Which file should I choose?

A great write up with charts showing various performances is provided by Artefact2 here

The first thing to figure out is how big a model you can run. To do this, you'll need to figure out how much RAM and/or VRAM you have.

If you want your model running as FAST as possible, you'll want to fit the whole thing on your GPU's VRAM. Aim for a quant with a file size 1-2GB smaller than your GPU's total VRAM.

If you want the absolute maximum quality, add both your system RAM and your GPU's VRAM together, then similarly grab a quant with a file size 1-2GB Smaller than that total.

Next, you'll need to decide if you want to use an 'I-quant' or a 'K-quant'.

If you don't want to think too much, grab one of the K-quants. These are in format 'QX_K_X', like Q5_K_M.

If you want to get more into the weeds, you can check out this extremely useful feature chart:

llama.cpp feature matrix

But basically, if you're aiming for below Q4, and you're running cuBLAS (Nvidia) or rocBLAS (AMD), you should look towards the I-quants. These are in format IQX_X, like IQ3_M. These are newer and offer better performance for their size.

These I-quants can also be used on CPU and Apple Metal, but will be slower than their K-quant equivalent, so speed vs performance is a tradeoff you'll have to decide.

The I-quants are not compatible with Vulcan, which is also AMD, so if you have an AMD card double check if you're using the rocBLAS build or the Vulcan build. At the time of writing this, LM Studio has a preview with ROCm support, and other inference engines have specific builds for ROCm.
